Nutrition, Training, and Sleep for Menopausal Mountain Athletes - Roar Chapter 3

Menopause. It's not what two 30-something dudes usually discuss on a podcast, but we owe it to the badass women who train with us.

Menopause is intense (we have moms – we hear about it), but it doesn't have to slow you down. Join us on the 100 Year Athlete pod as we break down Chapter 3 of ROAR by Dr. Stacy Sims. We'll discuss her recommendations for menopausal nutrition, sleep, fitness, and hydration so you can keep playing and training hard.

Quotes (Ben's)

"The end of your periods isn't the end of the line"

"...There is a large drop in the protein synthesis to protein breakdown ratio once you go through menopause. So it's harder not only to build muscle, but even just to save the lean mass you have so you have to be really intentional about how you feel and how you recover."

"Just drinking water is not hydrating."
